“Saturday Night Live” poked fun at country singer Morgan Wallen’s abrupt exit from the comedy show before he headed back to “God’s Country.”

James Austin Johnson, who portrayed President Donald Trump, mentioned the “Last Night” crooner while discussing “Liberation Day” tariffs during the segment’s “Trump Tariff Cold Open” skit.

“I even put tariffs on an island uninhabited by humans. It’s called Heard and McDonald Island,” he joked.

“McDonald Island. I would love to visit there. Can you imagine that? Big Mac and a hula skirt. Get me to God’s country, right? Remember that?” Johnson, 35, added.

In another part of Saturday’s show, comedian Colin Jost mentioned Wallen, 31, while talking about the financial state of the US during the “Weekend Update.”

“This was the worst week for the stock market since the summer of 2020. But you have to remember — back then, the president was also Trump,” Jost, 42, said, referring to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Just in the past two days, investors have lost over $6 trillion. Money is leaving the stock market faster than Morgan Wallen at goodnight,” he added.

Reps for Wallen weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

Last weekend, the “Whiskey Glasses” singer was invited on the late-night comedy show to perform two songs from his upcoming studio album, “I’m the Problem.”

He stirred up a frenzy when he abruptly fled the “SNL” set after host Mikey Madison thanked him for being the musical guest.

As the credits rolled, the “Cowgirls” crooner gave a one-armed hug to the actress and walked off the stage instead of following the tradition of chatting and mingling with the cast.

Wallen also opted out of attending the afterparty.

Immediately after the show, the two-time Grammy nominee took to his social media to share a photo of his private jet with the caption, “Get me to God’s country.”

Insiders close to NBC told TMZ that there was “no bad blood on their end” and explained that Wallen’s exit was “just an awkward moment at the end of the show.”

Page Six also learned that Wallen initially declined to participate in a sketch on “SNL” and was “not super friendly” to staff.
